ENS DAO Delegate Applications

šŸ’¬ General Discussion

I was thinking of applying to be a delegate until I read yours. I will probably delegate my vote to you. :slight_smile:

ENS name: maraschmiedt.eth

My reasons for wanting to be a delegate:

ENS will be as foundational to the Web3.0 architecture, as DNS has been to the development of the the internet since the 1980s. Decentralized identity and user-centric data management are complex and broad-ranging capabilities that are fundamental to itā€™s success.

Because of their high versatility and compatibility, ENS domains open up an array of innovation in the digital identity space and its relation to personal, social, creative and financial domains - many of which we may not be able to imagine yet.

To get there the ENS community needs to lead with a balanced and adaptive approach to incentive policies, rigorous treasury management and forward-facing grants strategy.

With over 5 years of experience in the Web3.0 space, leadership functions across Coinbase Cloud and ConsenSys Codefi, serving as an angel investor and advisor to various token- and DAO-based projects in the space I believe I have the right qualifications to support the community as a delegate with knowledge and intention.

My view on each section of the proposed ENS Constitution

  • Name ownership is an absolute right: (Agree/Disagree/Comment)
  • Registration fees exist as an incentive mechanism: (Agree/Disagree/Comment)
  • Income funds ENS and other public goods: (Agree/Disagree/Comment)
  • ENS Integrates with the global namespace: (Agree/Disagree/Comment)

My web3 qualifications / skills:

Over the past few years I have held leadership positions across Coinbase Cloud and ConsenSys Codefi, where Iā€™ve supported the development and growth of new organisations and business lines focused on the primitives and base-layers of Web3.0 enablement.

Iā€™m an active contributor in the Ethereum community, taking a public-good first approach to extensive research studies and projects I have led including an EF-granted initiatives on the development of SSV, a new cryptographic primitive for distributed validation.

Iā€™m an active angel and advisor to various early stage projects in the space, supporting on the fronts of incentive and organisation design, treasury management, go-to-mainnet planning and ongoing growth.

ENS name: massadoption.eth

**My reasons for wanting to be a delegate: ENS has played a crucial role in simplifying the DeFi experience for newcomers. The implementation of an identifier has lowered the barrier of participation for most - eliminating the need to copy & paste long alphanumeric public addresses. Convenience aside, ENS has offered us a peek into whatā€™s to come with Web3. I would love to be a delegate to represent, support, and contribute to the development & scale of the ENS DAO as well as the underlying protocol. **

My view on each section of the proposed ENS Constitution

  • Governance Champion @ Uniswap
  • Director of Tech. at BEN
  • Helped form BENā€™s (Blockchain Education Networkā€™s) Governance structure.
  • One of the first social traders on TokenSets (product is now deprecated :frowning:)
  • Active contributor for PieDAO, Furucombo, Ampleforth, Gitcoin

ENS name: trishburgess.eth

My reasons for wanting to be a delegate:

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to be part, from the very beginning, of one of the communities that will shape Web3 and help democratize finance, commerce, content and many other areas of the existing and future economies. I want to help bring the voice of women, and the Spanish-speaking community, and support diversity of views and past experiences.

My view on each section of the proposed ENS Constitution 762

My web3 qualifications / skills:

I am an engineer by training (Msc.Eng) with knowledge of ethereum and cardano - and 10+ years of experience across digital products, payments, and identity. I bring my background as facilitator in complex projects to help ensure that all voices are heard. I am currently involved in two Web3 projects, one around identity - developing a pragmatic approach to bring SSI to the world - and another around NFTs - both to help bring them to a broader user community, and also to help traditional entities understand how NFTs can bring a different level of engagement and benefits to their users. Both have ENS playing a pivotal role.

662

ENS name: 350.eth

My reasons for wanting to be a delegate: I would like to support the development of ENS to make it as durable, robust, accessible and scalable as possible, with the goal of making it the Web3 standard for naming.

My view on each section of the [proposed ENS Constitution ](Proposed ENS Constitution 19)

Name ownership is an absolute right: (Agree/Disagree/Comment)- Agree
Registration fees exist as an incentive mechanism: (Agree/Disagree/Comment)- Agree
Income funds ENS and other public goods: (Agree/Disagree/Comment)- Agree

663

ENS name: InertialFrame.eth

My reasons for wanting to be a delegate: I think the space needs more people that are all-inclusive and someone who comes from a diverse background I would love to be someone who can welcome people into the community. As well as someone who can help people through the process of getting a ENS as well as other blockchain/cryptocurrency problems.

  • Name ownership is an absolute right: Agree
  • Registration fees exist as an incentive mechanism: Agree
  • Income funds ENS and other public goods: Agree
  • ENS Integrates with the global namespace: Agree

**My web3 qualifications/skills: I donā€™t have any specific qualifications in web3 work but I have a background in Computer science and physics i have a B.S. In Physics and love working on programming in C++ and python. I love messing with all kinds of problems and am tech savvy and easy to talk too.

664

ENS name: 1906.eth
My reasons for wanting to be a delegate: I have intentionally made it a point to learn in public. A lot of my friends didnā€™t know about crypto, NFTs, or any of this space. Given that, I know that even as a Black guy that didnā€™t go to an ivy league school or an early crypto adopter, I have an immense amount of privilege. I use my privilege to learn in public and take risks so that others feel more comfortable taking that chance as well. I have written about my view here.

When I think about being an ENS delegate, I see the opportunity to help folks understand the new way to display identity in this growing web 3 space. From identity, you have the opportunity for ownership and community. I think I will represent a group of people that may not be as aware of the importance of ENS.

My view on each section of the proposed ENS Constitution 781

Name ownership is an absolute right: Absolutely Agree. Ownership is the key to driving community engagement. When I think about the challenges that exist in the current ecosystem, I believe that ownership is the most important starting point to making this platform for the next generation.

Registration fees exist as an incentive mechanism: Strongly agree. A friend of mine wanted to buy about a dozen ENS domains with the plan to get them and hopefully resell them to the ā€œbig namesā€ later. Given the registration fees, it limited his strategy and it will definitely control for more folks thinking of the same thing.

Income funds ENS and other public goods: Agree. I think that the mission of this group should be to find ways to create value for owners. Part of that value is in doing public projects that create an ecosystem where our users will thrive.

ENS Integrates with the global namespace: Disagree. I believe that part of the value of the second question - registration fees limiting folks from squatting - is why this step is not necessary. I think it doing this would not be fair to the earliest of adopters in the ENS space.

My web3 qualifications / skills: I own my ENS and a couple for my kids and I want to be vocal about what this can look like not only for the current holders but for the next generation of adopters. Iā€™m thinking of the long game. I am also building a live event technology company that is using blockchain, web 3 tools, and other tech to help fans have better experiences with their favorite artists, athletes, teams, and entertainers. So I see myself as a consumer as well as a business leader that is building in this space. Overall, I am a community builder and have recently helped found Amass, an end-to-end wealth creation platform for Black Americans. When I talk about creating opportunities for people, I put my money where my mouth is and use my time and resources to do it.

ENS name: Lowfiwifi

My reasons for wanting to be a delegate: I believe in creating unwavering equity and freedom through making seemingly complex topics simple. My goal is to be transparent and scale ENS in a way that makes it clear to the most technical and least technical person in order to drive unified innovation. The future is a world where we can participate in scaling ENS in a way that contributes the best thoughts from creatives, artists, technologists, and dreamers. As someone whose worked in the technology industry as a Product Manager for over 10 years, I know how it important is getting feedback and being empathic and delivering the right thing at the right time.

As a black man, I know how important it is to be heard and to be understood. I promise to represent those who may not understand the underlying complexity of why ENS important to our society, but choose to participate in it based on the possibilities it can unlock and opportunities it can bring to society as a whole

ENS name:

sohrab.eth

My reasons for wanting to be a delegate: I think I have the required vision in proposing and analysis of governace ideas

Being a former physics scientist and economic analyst, I think I have standard visions in developing and investigating great governance ideas. I got familiar with the crypto economy from 2012 and, during the past two years I have been focusing on Blockchain research. We have developed several MVPs in this regard. As a result, I have adequate experience in this world! But the fact that brings me to be a delegate in this area, is my vision (and experiences) in analysing the outcomes of each decision.

My view on each section of the proposed ENS Constitution

  • Name ownership is an absolute right: (Agree/Disagree/Comment)

In short I agree

comment: there is some danger for the whole cummunitssy if someone start using some Names for criminal services (i.e. child abuse). In this case, we should decide what to do. A democratic solution (knowing democracy sometimes works well) anyone can submit a report abuse proposal then others may vote in favor of banning that name.

  • Registration fees exist as an incentive mechanism: (Agree/Disagree/Comment) Somehow Disagree

It should be well defined to agree with. What kind of incentive? Why is the registration fee used as an incentive further than some anti-attack friction? I may agree with this concept if the statement is defined clearly.

  • Income funds ENS and other public goods: (Agree/Disagree/Comment)

Agree in general

  • ENS Integrates with the global namespace: (Agree/Disagree/Comment)

Totally Agree but there is a big exception

I think most people agree with; but they are not aware that this may affect the ENS independence. This integration requires intense political negotiations. As a result they would like to enforce ENS in some cases (as they have done this on DNS before). I agree with this integration if it does not affect ENS independence.

My web3 qualifications / skills:

  • Familiar with code level depth of Blockchain technology since 2012

  • Local Activist in social movement toward decentralized web

  • Working on UniqueID (an ongoing project for issuance of unique Identity for every human being as a world nation identity platform)

  • Working on an undercollateralized loan system based on proof of humanity mechanism, to distribute bankā€™s seigniorage fairly among every human being.

  • Solidity expriences

I am not a front end developer professional but I work alongside two great front end developers who are specially experienced in web3 DApps developments. I had a little contribution in cryptoverse.cc web3 services and I have developed plenty of reports in analysing diverse web3 DApps (i.e.e oasis, axie, ā€¦)

ENS name: thesavage.eth

My reasons for wanting to be a delegate: I want to help the Crypto easier, and with having ENSā€™s it will help people more easily find each other.
